Start by peeling your mangoes and discard the peel. Cut the fruit flesh from the mangoes if you are using regular commercial mango varieties. If your mango variety has fibers and strings, don’t cut the flesh off but rather leave it on the seed core. The fruit flesh will fall off the fibers and the seed core during the cooking process. *see Notes Pour all the sugar over the mangoes and mix everything well. This step is optional. Wash your lemon/lime and cut into half. Press out the juice and pour over the mangoes. Throw the 2 squeezed out lemon halves into the pot with the mangoes. Lemon skin adds natural pectin to the jam making and it helps to set the jam. Heat up your pot on low heat and stir the fruits. Cook on low heat for about 30 minutes or until you see the rolling boil happening. Reduce heat and cook until jam is set. Use a thermometer in doubt: The setting temperature is 105 Celsius/220 Fahrenheit. You can also test if the jam is set by using a frozen plate or spoon and by dropping some of the hot cooked jam on the frozen part. That will cool the drop of jam instantly and you will be able to see if the jam has set or not. If the jam is still running, cook it a bit more and repeat the test until the jam has set. Always keep an eye on the cooking jam as to not burn the jam. Pick out and discard the lime/lemon halves and if you used fibrous mangoes, then the seed core as well. *see notes Grab a sterilized Jar and fill it up with the jam up to the rim. Seal the jars and turn it upside down before you store the mango jam jars in a cool and dry place. Keeping the jam jars upside down creates a vacuum and helps in preserving the jam all the longer. Make sure to label your jam with jam name, date and best before date. The jam will be good for about 10 months if unopened. Store in the fridge once opened.

Add the mango to a blender and pulse to a slightly pureed with chunky pieces consistency. Place the mango in a medium sized saucepan or frying pan along with the sweetener, lime juice and ginger. Turn on the heat, on a low flame and let the jam cook slowly. Put the lid on the pan and allow to simmer but stir occasionally to avoid burning and/sticking. After 15-20 minutes the jam should have thickened. Remove the jam from the heat, let in cool down (not completely) and stir in the sea moss. Once completely cool, pour into a clean glass jar and refrigerate.

Boil, steam, or microwave the whole mangoes until soft. Cool, then remove the peel and inner seed; place the mango pulp in a large bowl. Use a fork or potato masher to mash the pulp well. Place the sugar and water in a large saucepan over low heat, stir mixture, and bring to a boil. When mixture begins boiling, increase heat to medium-high. Continue boiling until fine, soft threads form, 270 degrees F (135 degrees C). Stir in the mango pulp, add the saffron threads, if desired, and boil until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Pour cooked jam into sterilized jars and seal according to canning directions.
